Good luck to you also. I'm sure SMU or Houston will be a fine replacement

I'm proud of you Jekyll, you've been doing some studying on the Aggie War Hymn. I also see you used "A&M" instead of just copying "aTm" off the helmets.
For the bonus round can you tell me what the A&M stands for?
The OU network....interesting because everything I've read said OU and OSU were looking at doing a joint network. I don't think OU has the base to have as successful a network as Texas does.
As for the rivalry game...why does it have to end again? Because A&M is leaving the conference? I would hate to see this series end, personally. There are plenty of other nonconference rival games that happen every year...Florida v. FSU, ND v. USC, UGA v. Ga Tech.
If it is over (and I hope not) will OU be willing to change their rivalry game with OSU to play Texas Thanksgiving weekend?
Whipping boys? You're puttin A&M below Vandy? I think you underestimate how A&M in the SEC could sway some Texas HS football recruits. I'm guessing they will have higher ranked recruiting classes starting with next years class and that Arkansas and LSU will lose some Texas HS players to A&M in the next few years.
I can agree that going into the SEC West and facing Auburn, Alabama, LSU, Arkansas, Ole Miss, & Miss. St every year is a tough schedule to say the least. It's not like Texas, OU, Ohio St, Wisconsin, Oregon, or anyone else for that matter, could just walk in and have their way in the SEC either.
Regardless, it took balls to make the move so we'll see how this all pans out.
